Bio:

I am a photographer, the Visual Arts editor of the grassroots publication Liberator Magazine, and a blogger for Charm City Current, a blog collective developed by the Baltimore Sun. I currently live and work in Washington, D.C.. I was born during the 1980s in the Windy City where, from an early age, I developed a love of the arts (especially photography) and writing. These interests led me to New Expression, a teen-oriented monthly newsmagazine written, produced, and edited by, for and about teenagers in the Chicago-land area. My interests led me to earn my B.A. (with honors) in print journalism from Howard University. During college, I wrote and served as Campus Editor for the campus newspaper, The Hilltop, for two years aand interned for a variety of news organizations. I also earned a M.A. in Digital Arts from the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore with a concentration in photography.
